Rated 4 out of 5 by Newlywed from Fun colour, pesky button We got this as a gift for our wedding as I'd put it on our gift registry - I love all the fun colours it comes in, and I was thrilled to be able to finally easily blend soups together, as my other small blender just doesn't cut it. I liked being able to put it directly into my soup pot and blend it up, and not have to do it in batches. Assembly is easy, cleaning is pretty easy also. The only thing I don't like about it is that you have to hold the button down to blend. If you have a lot to blend up, it can get uncomfortable to hold. Plus, if you have weak wrists like I do (And I'm not old) it gets hard to continuously blend without taking breaks.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MrsMike921 from Great Product This does just what it should, I love it for a quick batch of whipped cream, eggs or other small things. It's easy to use and clean up, not overly loud for what it is. The base removes easily for clean up, or you can run it in a bowl of hot soapy water and it's done. The only thing I would recommend be done differently is I wish there was an added cover with a slot you could slide over from the side so that it covered almost all of the top of the jar while processing that would contain the little bit of splatter that you occasionally get. I do use my hand for that but I can't cover the whole opening. However I'll still give it 5 stars, I love mine!

Rated 4 out of 5 by I'm the mama from Hand blender is fun and easy to use! I bought this blender on a whim. It was small enough to stay on the countertop, it was a gorgeous blue color and it's a KitchenAid product (big fan!!) so how could I go wrong?! I found it easy to use. I make smoothies mostly and the ingredients blend together so easily. My only complaint is that the blender tips over unless I stand it exactly right. The cord has remained very stiff from being boxed so it is awkwardly turning the blender around if I am not precise about standing it up on the counter. Not a huge complaint and I'll continue to use it and no doubt the cord will relax with use. I'm considering buying a second blender to make my own laundry soap.

Rated 4 out of 5 by ValerieR from Great product I originally purchased a different blender but it seemed cheap. This blender is rugged and works wonderfully. I use it everyday to mix my protein drink. It's easy to clean. I'm so glad I purchased the Kitchedaid brand. The only drawback is the plastic cup they provided. It's the perfect size and I like the rubber bottom. But the sides are all scratched from the blender. I tried to blend carefully but it's still badly scratched. I'm thinking I have to throw it out because I believe that germs will accumulate in the scratch area (like a chip in plates). I wish they made it with a material that didn't scratch or proved a way to order more because it is a nice size.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Sel77 from Love the design look and its accessories... This product is great if you're looking for a basic hand blender and i love the fact that it came in a red colour which adds some excitement to my kitchen. The additional accessories are useful too. Overall, i am satisfied with its performance and blending capabilities. The only thing you have to be careful about is how the bottom "blending" part can sometimes become unhooked from the top hand-held part while in use, particularly if you're trying to maneuver with it a lot, which stops the hand blender... so you have to be careful to hold it with both hands (one on the bottom, one on the top)... hence it's make it hard to use the blender with just one hand as a result.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Guillermo the IVth from Works, but for how long? I keep looking for a stick hand blender that's solid state, and from the metal immersion portion on the bottom one would think the internals would be all metal as well. Instead once one separates the motor from the lower half, we find plastic fins that are part of the locking mechanism, and other internal plastics. How long before these strip out like my last two? This is a planned obsolescence made to fail. I don't relish having to buy yet another in a few years because of this design. Also, the provided cup's a rather thin plastic. Still, it does the job, and we liked the inclusion of a silicone lid for the cup.

Rated 1 out of 5 by AngryGirl from No good Bought it in May and in July the blade broke in half when making a banana-milk shake. No hard stuff. No ice in it. Only banana and milk.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Shake Maker from Quality Cop New Blender has balance issues. I have to rotate the blending arm to a position different that the alignment marks as designated on the blending arm. This vibration causes the liquid to spatter..., not good KitchenAid! I've ordered new blending arms for two of the blenders that have this concern. ALSO, the markings on the mixing cup are no longer laser etched (as shown in KitchenAid marketing photos). This makes reading the scale VERY difficult. Please update photos and advise me of your course of action.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MP from Better than other brand I had Got this about 6 weeks ago and have while I have only used it a couple time can tell you from a product design it is worth the money. The othe one I owned had a design of being incased in plastic, and over time it cracked (not on the seam) and then the shaft got loose and fell apart. The metal design of the KitchenAid is much better because you can separate it from the motor and not risk getting water in the motor when cleaning. While the lower end is a bit awkward to detatch (just an odd hand hold/grip)I feel that having to really turn to loosen is actually making the entire piece more stable when using.
